Disaster Technical Assistance Center Supplemental Research Bulletin-Mass Violence and Behavioral Health

About the Course:

This issue of the Supplemental Research Bulletin focuses on how mass violence affects the behavioral health of adult and young (child and adolescent) survivors or witnesses of a mass violence incident. We discuss the phases of response experienced by survivors, as well as immediate and long-term reactions among adults and children and youth. This issue goes on to provide information on immediate and long- term interventions and the effects of mass media exposure following a mass violence incident. This issue will focus mostly on the effects of mass violence resulting from terror attacks or active shooter incidents in the United States.

This course is based on the article, Disaster Technical Assistance Center Supplemental Research Bulletin-Mass Violence and Behavioral Health created by SAMHSA in 2017.
